What a ****in joke. Did Prado/his agent prepare at all for the ride? Do either have any knowledge of FG?

Now this is indeed bush league. Making the wrong decisions
in a split second is one thing. But not preparing for a horse and
connections that have Derby aspirations (or really any other) is
inexcusable. They have access to information and should take
advantage of it. Not knowing the track or horse is horribly
unprofessional at this level.
And...
Prado will find a horse for the Derby.
